  1. Developing Black and White Film

  2. Steps for rolling film (short version): 1. Get items together: Canister, post, reel, light-tight top, lid, scissors and can opener 2. Secure dark area 3. Open film cartridge 4. Cut off film tongue with scissors 5. Cup the film and place in reel slot, push a few inches into reel 6. Spool the film onto the reel; cut/tear off spool at the end 7. Place post in canister 8. Push reel to the bottom of post 9. Place light-tight top on canister and lock 10. Place lid on canister and clean up area 11. Proceed to development stage

  3. Equipment Needed • Film

  4. Film

  5. Equipment Needed • Film • Tank & top • Empty film reel • Can opener (if not using a reusable film canister) • Scissors • Thermometer

  6. Chemicals Needed • Developer .. Kodak HC110

  7. Chemicals Needed • Developer .. Kodak HC110 • Stop .. Indicator stop bath or water rinse

  8. Chemicals Needed • Developer .. Kodak HC110 • Stop .. Indicator stop bath or water rinse • Fixer .. Kodak Rapid Fixer

  9. Chemicals Needed • Developer .. Kodak HC110 • Stop .. Indicator stop bath or water rinse • Fixer .. Kodak Rapid Fixer • Wetting Agent .. Photo Flo

  10. Getting Ready • Arrange needed equipment on shelf

  11. Getting Ready • Arrange needed equipment on shelf • Film Rolling Closets A & B • Close door and be sure it is locked • Check for darkness • Front Darkroom • Make sure everybody is situated • Turn off the light

  12. Getting film ready • Remove film from cassette • If you left the leader hanging out, pull the film all the way out • If no leader, pop the ends of the canister off • Cut off film leader

  13. Getting film ready • Trim the corners of the film • Two very small cuts at the very edge of the film, snip each corner so that they are not sharp nor just straight across.

  14. Getting film ready • Load the film on the reel

  15. Getting film ready • Remove film from cassette • Cut off film leader • Trim the corners of the film • Load the film on the reel • Place reel into tank

  16. Getting film ready • Remove film from cassette • Cut off film leader • Trim the corners of the film • Load the film on the reel • Place reel into tank • Attach the top of the tank carefully

  17. Preparing to process • Open door and go to processing area

  18. Preparing to process • Open door and go to processing area • Determine temperature of developer (it is usually about 75 degrees)

  19. Preparing to process • Open door and go to processing area • Determine temperature of developer (it is usually about 75 degrees) • Check chart for time to develop

  20. Beginning to process • Measure your chemicals carefully. • You need 10 ounces per reel.

  21. Beginning to process • Measure your chemicals carefully. • You need 10 ounces per reel. • Pour developer into tilted tank

  22. Beginning to process • Measure your chemicals carefully • You need 10 ounces per reel. • Pour developer into tilted tank • Begin timing as soon as developer is in tank

  23. Developing • Agitate chemicals by inverting tank for first 30 seconds.

  24. Developing • Agitate chemicals by inverting tank for first 30 seconds. • Rap tank on sink (gently)

  25. Developing • Agitate chemicals by inverting tank for first 30 seconds. • Rap tank on sink (gently) • Set down tank for 25 seconds and then agitate for the next 5 seconds.

  26. Developing • Repeat agitation every 30 seconds for 5 seconds.

  27. Developing • Repeat agitation every 30 seconds for 5 seconds. • Begin pouring out developer during the last 10 seconds.

  28. Stop Bath • Pour 10 ounces stop or water into tilted tank

  29. Stop Bath • Pour 10 ounces stop or water into tilted tank • Agitate gently for 30 seconds

  30. Stop Bath • Pour 10 ounces stop or water into tilted tank • Agitate gently for 30 seconds • Begin pouring out stop last 10 seconds.

  31. Fixer • Pour fixer into tilted tank

  32. Fixer • Pour fixer into tilted tank • Agitate five seconds every 30 seconds

  33. Fixer • Pour fixer into tilted tank • Agitate five seconds every 30 seconds • Rap tank on sink (gently)

  34. Fixer • Pour fixer into tilted tank • Agitate five seconds every 30 seconds • Rap tank on sink (gently) • Fix the film 5 minutes

  35. Washer • Open your tank

  36. Washer • Open your tank • Put reel in washer & turn on water

  37. Washer • Open your tank • Put reel in washer & turn on water • Wash for 5 minutes

  38. Washer • Open your tank • Put reel in washer & turn on water • Wash for 5 minutes • Take reel out of washer

  39. The Wetting Agent • Place in the wetting agent which makes your negatives dry faster and cleaner

  40. The Wetting Agent • Place in the wetting agent which makes your negatives dry faster and cleaner • Gently agitate for 30 seconds

  41. Dryer • Remove film from reel

  42. Dryer • Remove film from reel • Use fingers or actual squeegee to remove excess water

  43. Dryer • Remove film from reel • Use fingers or actual squeegee to remove excess water • Hang to dry with a clip at the bottom • If processing 120mm, use two clips at the top and two at the bottom

  44. Final Step • On next day or when completely dry, cut the film into strips • Be very gentle with your negatives. Touch the negatives ONLY by the edges

  45. Final Step • Put film in negative envelope • Make sure your name is on the negative holder and the envelop.
